Why celsius scale gives negative temperature?

Temperature in Celsius can be negative. 0 degrees is freezing point in Celsius, so it is possible to get -1, -10 degrees, etc. However, not all temperatures in Celsius are negative.


Does 0 Celsius equal -273K?

No. There are no negative kelvin temperatures.


Which scale of temperatures does not have negative values?

Kelvin scale


How does a thermometer use integers?

For temperatures, zero is an arbitrary reference point, depending on which scale is used. For Celsius, zero is assigned the the temperature at which water freezes. So temperatures which are colder than this temperature will be negative values, and temperatures warmer will be positive values. Fahrenheit uses a different reference point for zero, but similar principles apply.


What substance is negative 38 degree Celsius at liquid state?

chemicals with temperatures 0f 38 degree Celsius below 0


What kelvin temperature converts to X Celsius and negative X Fahrenheit X is an element of Real Numbers?

First of all, Kelvin absolute zero = -272 degrees Celsius. Secondly, the set of real numbers which contain Celsius numbers and negative Fahrenheit numbers are as follows: Negative X Fahrenheit would = -1 to -31 (because two negatives make a positive, and this would also be consistent with temperatures in the range of 1 to 31 degrees Fahrenheit, along which range all of the Celsius numbers are negative). So, 1 deg F to 31 deg F would then correlate with negative Celsius temperatures (but since we are using the numbers -1 to -31, this would correlate to positive X Celsius). Thus, the range of Kelvin temperatures would be 273 to 304. The reason for which the answer is somewhat convoluted is due to the fact that there do not exist any negative Fahrenheit temperatures for which Celsius temperatures are positive. Thus, negative numbers have to be used in order to "turn the equation around", so to speak, because there is a range of temperatures (1 to 31, in real numbers) Fahrenheit, for which Celsius temperatures are below zero, or in the negative ... due to the fact that deg 0 deg C = 32 deg F.


Which temperature scales has no negative temperatures?

The Kelvin scale has no negative values because 0 K is absolute zero, no motion.


What temperature is Celsius and Fahrenheit the same?

The two scales intersect : -40 °C is the same temperature as -40 °F This is due to the offset of water's freezing point to 32 °F. Between 32°F and 0°F, the Fahrenheit temperatures are positive while the Celsius temperatures have already moved into the negative. By the point -40°, the larger intervals marked by the Celsius degrees have been "overtaken" by the smaller Fahrenheit intervals. Below this point, negative temperatures in Fahrenheit have larger values than the corresponding Celsius values, just as do all Fahrenheit temperatures above 0°C.


What is the mathematical equation used to convert temperatures between the Kelvin temperature values and degrees Celsius and visa verse?

Temp in Kelvin = Temp in Celsius + 273.15° Have a look at Absolute Zero on Wikipedia.


What is the range of alcohol thermometer?

The alcohol thermometer is used to measure temperatures from negative 115 degrees Celsius to 785 degrees Celsius. It measures the freezing point and boiling point of alcohol.


Are the temperature bellow the freezing point of water on the Celsius scale positive or negative number?

Celsius is a scale of temperature. Its range includes both positive and negative numbers.


Is a kelvin equal to a Celsius?

Units are the same. Temperatures in kelvin are 273 more than celsius temperatures.
